That would be the true sequel to the game if it has one.:biggrin: Oh, and I did try Infinity Mode. The most I've survived is 32 hours and 45 minutes. I think I'm gonna attempt to do the Zombie Genocider achievement before I attempt Infinity Mode again. I like having Frank run around with only the Mega Man Tights, helmet and bare feet. What's really funny is having him in the Wrestling Boots and Tights. In infinity mode, you can kill Carlito when you're in the Maintenence Tunnel. Just carry a Katana and or a Meat Cleaver, and hack away at him until he runs away then comes back. Do that 3 or 4 times and he coughs up a lotta good items like wine, SMG, and other good stuff.

I've been thinking about getting the game, but I've read that people are having trouble with the game. The game freezes and crashes. Is anyone here having problems playing the game?

None here.

I have an Intercooler though, so that might be a factor.

Well the game has messed up on me once. While I was attempting Infinity mode, I got up to about 4 days and 22 hours. I go to a different area and then the game suddenly stops loading. So I wasted about 12 hours for nothing. That's the only problem I've encountered (maybe because I played for so long). you can't save in this mode right?

Damn, I love this game.

Just need Frank the Pimp, Transmissionary, 5 and 7-Day Survivor!

Double Post:
I read somewhere that on day 4 the Food Court does that. Try to stay clear of it, but I guess it's a little late for you now. Sorry. =(

oof.

Jesus Christ, is it seriously as bad at this? There's no bloody way I'll be getting a HDTV anytime soon. Their existence here is still at a 'complete joke' level.

I played the demo and it was fine.

Does anyone know if you have to save any civillians to unlock overtime mode?
Or can you run through the game just being sure to catch every case and thats all you need?

I've spent a couple days playing it on a standard TV using an RGB cable, and for the most part it was easily readable. But I would put that down to the cable.

Anyone know if you can still unlock overtime mode by just going through all the cases? Or do you still need to get additional scoops and rescue people?

You don't have to rescue people, but how else are you gonna pass the time between cases?

Kill the people?
:D

Yup, that helps greatly. There have only been a few times that the game has bugged out on me but that's because I was playing it for a very long period of time without any breaks.

To unlock Overtime Mode, you just need to solve all the cases and reveal all the facts behind the case. Survivors aren't a factor in that one. Cause to unlock Overtime Mode, you need to get the best ending which is to do what I mentioned above. Completing Overtime mode nets you the true ending and unlocks Infinite Mode. Lemme just tell you, the last boss in OT Mode can be a bitch sometimes.

If you know his pattern, he's actually pretty easy. The Knee Drop move is quite helpful.

What I did was the Jump Kick + Roundhouse kick combo and went back and forth between the two different levels on the tank. Which did work. Took a bit of patience but it was worth it.

For the Census Taker achievement, is it necessary to keep the photos of the 50 survivors on Frank's camera or can I just snap and delete, should I run out of space?

Just got this game (and an Xbox 360) recently, and I have to say, it's pretty fun so far.

I did notice one of those "game freezes up" issue when I was in the area after you leave the "safe" zone, and tried going into the park.

Those stupid thugs on the humvee really pissed me off, because they never gave me much time to aim a shot, and it seems no matter what I did, the bullets always found their way to me. Their taunting certainly didn't help either, and although the music was appropiate, it almost got to the point where I just didn't want to go there anymore because killing them was such a PITA.

Luckily during one run I managed to get them trapped between some trees, and shot the gunner until he died. Then stealing that .50 cal machine gun, I wasted the other two bastards, and man did it feel good using that gun on them after all the pain and trouble I went through (judging from what others have said though, I'm sure there are worse things to come).

I like this game a lot so far. My only real complaint is the fact that the text is horribly small, so it's really hard for me to read (and this is on a 29 inch television) the text. And the comic about the walkie-talkie was hiliarious :D There were times I'm trying to fight for my life and avoid being zerged by the zombies, when the stupid thing keeps going off and off, and I'm afraid to answer it because I can't attack while listening to that (so I was really cracking up when those zombies attacked him lol).

I hope they make a sequel to this game soon, and I hope they add a mode where you can just bust zombie heads without having to worry about anything (like draining health). There's just something cool about busting zombie heads.

They show up more than once which to me is a shock, they must be infected with some bizarre strain. :doh: Grab the mega buster by killing 53,594 zombies and those thugs are pretty much a joke. 3 hours in the maintenance tunnel should get you those kills quickly.

Ah great, something to look forward too lol. Anyway, thanks for the info, after getting beat by them, I would like to pop a few caps in them :D

If you destory the vehicle (by either running into a lot of zombies in the maintenence tunnel or gunning the vehicle down until you can't get in it) they don't appear as much and they don't appear when you're transporting Isabela, and near the end of the game.

I did this all during the very first case which is to aid Brad. Surprisingly you can be down there for days and the game won't end. Only when you do activate the Brad/Carlito cutscene the game ends. I took the corvette, headed into the maintenance tunnel, took the first right available and ran over whatever I coud then proceeded to get into the truck neary Larry the butcher. Killed all the zombies at that location, swarms of them are there and drove around until I felt it was necessary to head back out and swap with the corvette. Do this and you'll have it in no time.

I tried to beat the game "normally", but Carlito with the sniper rifle kept beating me repeatedly (I didn't know where the gun shack was at the time, and when my brother found it by accident, I didn't feel like fighting a drunken redneck with a shotgun after watching my brother struggle on him). So I did the "run over 53,594 zombies to get the Real Mega Buster" (which I think took me about 4 hours, and then I managed to rack up to about close to 70k kills before I got to the chopper at the end the first time).

Once I had the mega-buster, just about the rest of the game was a joke. Those thugs were so easy to beat that I think I wasted an entire mega buster shooting up their dead corpses for all the trouble they gave me (not to mention all that damn taunting), then used the .50 cal they had and shot them up some more. Boy was that satisfying :D

Sniper Carlito went down in like 4 hits with it (and since he was running from me, it helped me kill him quicker :D), and just about every other boss that allowed me to use that gun died in like 1-6 shots. The megabuster is an example of an "I-win button" (MMORPG term) lol.

Actually, what I found more interesting was killing the clown by the coaster ride, taking his chainsaw, and then grabbing those 3 books which made the chainsaw last pretty much forever (and because it was a "small" weapon, you don't drop it when you get hit like with the regular chainsaw). On top of that, you could grab more if you left the zone and came back (the one with the coaster ride), so I never bothered to get any other melee weapons again (the katana was okay prior to finding this out, but I didn't like it's short lifespan). Bosses also went down in like 3-6 hits with this thing.

Now for that infinite mode...
